20 Master<strong>brand</strong> logo – Exclusion zone<br />
& minimum size<br />
The master<strong>brand</strong> logo should always have<br />
breathing space. This can be determined by the<br />
width of the ‘e’.<br />
The minimum recommended size for the<br />
master<strong>brand</strong> logo is 30mm wide (150 pixels<br />
online). In exceptional circumstances when it has<br />
to be used below this size please remove the ‘<strong>Royal</strong><br />
<strong>Botanic</strong> gardens’ wording. It should never be used<br />
below 10mm wide (75 pixels online).<br />

under the main logo, e.g. Book spine / pencils<br />
In these circumstances it can be placed as shown here.<br />
10mm spine<br />
Logo width: 7mm
23 Master<strong>brand</strong> logo – Positions on the page<br />
The logo works most effectively if the K in <strong>Kew</strong> is<br />
left aligned, we also want it to be in a prominent<br />
position so top left is the preferred position.<br />
In exceptional circumstances it can be positioned<br />
elsewhere. The master<strong>brand</strong> logos (right) are<br />
numbered 1 to 4 in order of preference.<br />
The logo should not be centred.<br />
1 4<br />

24 Master<strong>brand</strong> logo – Relationship<br />
to the <strong>Royal</strong> Crest<br />
The <strong>Royal</strong> Crest should not be used as a logo<br />
or replace our main logo but can be used as an<br />
endorsing mark where appropriate.<br />
Appropriate circumstances would include where<br />
the royal connection adds significant weight or<br />
impact. Examples could include formal invitations,<br />
scientific publications or overseas publishing.<br />
It should always be physically separated from the<br />
master<strong>brand</strong> logo in order to prevent confusion.<br />
It should be positioned as an endorsement rather<br />
than another logo.<br />
Ideally, it should appear on a different page<br />
or at a minimum underneath the main logo.
25 Master<strong>brand</strong> logo – Relationship to the<br />
<strong>Royal</strong> Crest<br />
When using the <strong>Royal</strong> Crest with the master<strong>brand</strong><br />
logo, the <strong>Royal</strong> Crest size is determined by the<br />
height of<br />
the letter ‘K’ and <strong>Royal</strong> <strong>Botanic</strong> <strong>Gardens</strong> lettering.<br />
The exclusion zone can be determined by the<br />
size of the <strong>Royal</strong> Crest when they are being used<br />
together.<br />
The minimum size is 20mm wide and it can only be<br />
used in <strong>Kew</strong> dark green, black or white.<br />
45mm<br />
20mm<br />
the <strong>Royal</strong> crest can either be positioned:<br />
bottom left corner, in which case it should<br />
be left aligned with the master<strong>brand</strong> logo;<br />
or it can be positioned in the bottom right<br />
hand corner (as shown in the example on<br />
the right). it should never be positioned<br />
alongside the master<strong>brand</strong> logo. the<br />
examples above show the minimum<br />
amount of space permitted between the<br />
master<strong>brand</strong> logo and the <strong>Royal</strong> crest.
26 Master<strong>brand</strong> logo –<br />
Relationship to the <strong>Royal</strong> Crest<br />
For certain corporate uses (e.g. formal invitations,<br />
business cards etc) it can used on the same side but<br />
the Master<strong>brand</strong> logo should still lead, so the Crest<br />
should be positoned bottom left or right.<br />

When bringing all these elements<br />
together it is important to ensure your<br />
design is simple, allows text to breath<br />
and keeps different images and type<br />
styles to a minimum.
Environmental care<br />
When considering your design brief<br />
please also consider sustainability issues<br />
and take into account the following:<br />
All printed material should be produced<br />
using environmentally friendly methods<br />
as much as possible. We aim to use<br />
recycled and where possible, uncoated<br />
paper, and work with print companies<br />
who have suitable environmental<br />
accreditation. Designs should be<br />
created specifically to look good on<br />
recycled, uncoated paper, while print<br />
runs and locality of print companies<br />
should also be considered to reduce the<br />
carbon foot print.<br />
Please follow these recommendations:<br />
Paper should to be as close to 100%<br />
recycled as possible ·<br />
The minimum requirement should<br />
be not less than 50% recycled and<br />
50% from managed forests and<br />
FSC accredited<br />
Print companies should use some<br />
or all of these processes:<br />
Computer-to-plate origination<br />
Waterless press capacity<br />
Alcohol-free printing process<br />
Inks should be vegetable based<br />
Where possible the finish should<br />
be uncoated<br />
Print companies should have<br />
accreditation in one or more or the<br />
following and locally based printers<br />
are preferable:·<br />
FSC, Carbon neutral status<br />
ISO 14001<br />
EMAS (European Ecomanagement<br />
& Audit Scheme)<br />
WPA (Waterless Printing Association)<br />

That time of year thou mayst in me behold<br />
In me<br />

see'st the<br />
glowing of<br />
do hang<br />
such<br />
Upon those<br />
That on<br />
boughs which shake<br />
the ashes<br />
against the cold,<br />
of his youth<br />
Bare runied choirs,<br />
doth lie,<br />
where late the<br />
As the death-bed,<br />
whereon it<br />
sweet birds sang.<br />
In me thou see'st the<br />
must expire,<br />
Consum'd with<br />
twilight of such a day<br />
As after sunset<br />
fadeth in the west;<br />
that which it was<br />
nourish'd by.<br />
This thou<br />
Which by and by<br />
black night doth take away,<br />
Death's second self,<br />
perceiv'st,<br />
which makes thy<br />
love more strong,<br />
fire,<br />
To love that well, which thou<br />
must leave ere long.<br />
Poetry inspired<br />
